The PIPSI raised funds to help those in need during its annual “Hope for the Holidays”. Hope for the Holidays was a vision in response to the Covid Pandemic and with the desire to help those in need.  The PIPSI decorated the Pea Island Cookhouse Museum for Christmas and started collecting donations for those in need. Each year PIPSI chooses an organization that leads the charge in identifying that need. This year they choose Interfaith Community Outreach.  Interfaith Community Outreach “Provides Assistance to Individuals and families facing a Temporary Emergency Crisis”. ICO will bridge the gap in our community for those in need. In 2021 ICO was able to assist over 1000 families and give back to our community over $400,000 in monetary outreach.  ICO’s office is in Kill Devil Hills at 115 Mustian Street.  If you’d like to donate, join their volunteer staff, or refer someone, please call 252-480-0070 or go online to www.interfaithoutreach.com to apply for assistance.
